After suffering from Tourette's for years with his tics and outbursts getting progressively worse and with no results, coming from drugs or physical or spiritual therapy Jeff was able to convince his doctors and his insurance company to try a risky deep brain stimulation treatment, a surgery that involves the implantation of a pacemaker for the brain into his skull. Penned by a journalist who is also afflicted with Tourette's, this is the incredible story of a friendship that blossomed under their common experiences with this bizarre brain disorder. A complete discussion of the latest medical research of and treatments for Tourette's, written in accessible and easy-to-understand terminology, is also included. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 Matovic, Jeffrey P.|xHealth. 600 10 Fussell, James A.|xHealth. 650 0 Tourette syndrome|xPatients|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Tic disorders|xPatients|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Electronic books. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 11334055?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ipg_9781613743812_180.jpeg
